NORTON'S PILLS," fbr, in consequence of their great success, some unprincipled !ersons have prepared a spurious imitation. HAPPINESS, "the gay to-morrow of the mind," is insured by marriage. Previous, however, to entering into the hallowed obligation of marriage, it becomes an impressive duty not only to regulate the passions, but to cleanse the grosser nature from those impurities which the freedom of unrestricted pleasure may have entailed upon it. Luxurious habits will effeminize the body —a residence in the tropics will relax the elastic fibre—but more especially does the premature infatuation of youth too frequently compromise the natural dignity into a state of inanition, from whence the agonized sufferet more than doubts the chance of relief. To all such, then, we address ourselves, offering ho p e—e nergy —muscular strength—felicity. The easy cares of married life are sometimes disturbed by the suspension of those blessings which concentrate the nuptial wreath—for the female habit is often con. stitutionally weak—yet it can be strengthened, and deficient energy im. proved into functional power. In every ease of syphilitic intrusion, as well as in every relaxation of the generative economy, we pledge our abi lity to cure speedily, and with effect. Confident in our own honourable inte. grity as members of the College of Surgeons, we refer the sufibring corn. m unity of either sex especially those entering into matrimonial life) at once to our house, where daily attendance is given for personal consulta tion ; and letters from the country are immediately answered ; these must contain a remittance for Advice and Medicine, describing minutely the case, which can be forwarded to any part of the world, however distant.

LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST 29, 1836 ELECTORAL LISTS. It is important that it should be generally known, that by an Act, which received the Royal Assent only on the 20th of the present month, the Courts for the revision of the Electoral Lists by the Revising Bar risters are appointed to be held this year one month later than they were held in former years under the Reform Act. By the second section of the Act al luded to (the 6th and 7th William IV., cap. 101) the Courts of Revision are directed to be held " between the 15th of October inclusive and the 25th of Novem ber inclusive," instead of the 15th of September and the 25th of October, as provided in the Reform Act. We believe that this provision of the Act is not gene rally known even to the Revising Barristers, and far less to the churchwardens, overseers, and others whose arrangements may be affected by the change. It is, therefore, desirable that every publicity should be given to it. The following, is the• clause of the Act : " And be it enacted. That in lieu of the period by the said Act limited for the revision of the respective lists of voters by the barristers, the Courts for that purpose shall be held at some time between the 15th day of October in clusive, and the 25th day of November inclusive, in the present year, but not afterwards; and such respective lists shall be copied out into books by the persons and in the manner respectively prescribed by the said Act, on or before the last day of November in the present year ; and every such book shall be the register of electors to vote at any election which shall take place between the Ist day of De cember next inclusive and the Ist day of November, 1837." iMR. HUTT'S LETTER TO THE RE- FORM ASSOCIATION. ( From the IL& Advertiser.) ! The following letter from Mr. Hutt to the Secre tary of the Hull Reform Association, explains, in terms not to be mistaken, the unhappy state of affairs occasioned by the desperate contumacy of the Lords. The full force of the letter can only be rightly estima ted by bearing in mind that Mr. Hutt is a man who never gives way to unsteady impulses, nor aims at se curing the good opinion of his constituents by any other mode than the round of faithful and judicious service :—. • " Gibside, 20th Aug., 1836. " SlB,—The Parliament is prorogued, and I have at length returned to the country to enjoy a temporary ces sation from the business to which my time and exertions have been devoted since the beginning of the year. " I wish it were possible to speak with satisfaction of the results of the Session. In fact there have been scarcely any results beyond business of course. As to legislative improvement, this has been almost a lost Session—lost in ' preparing measures of Reform to be rejected by the Lords. In 1835 we accomplished a great deal. We removed the anomaly of a Tory Speaker in a Reformed House of Commons ; we out-voted the Tories in a Parliament elected under their own auspices, and dismissed them from power, not by a Court intrigue as they had dismissed Lord Mel bourne the year before, but by means the most constitu tional and legitimate ; and we effected—that is, we did not ,_propose merely, but we accomplished—that great change in the Municipal Corporations of England which will be com memorated with satisfaction through all the annals of hereafter. " Though the Lords rejected many of our Bills in 1835, still that Session was by no means lost. But what have the representatives of the people to show this year to the country as the result of their labours from January almost to September. What? except the Tithe Bill (in which the selfish interest of the Peers prevailed over their destruc tive passions), and there is but one word which supplies the the answer—Nothing. This year the Lords seem to have taken as a principle of action to reject all suggestions of Reform made by the Commons at the instance of Minis ters ; and not because of any objection to those suggestions in themselves, but because they originated with Ministers, and were approved by the Commons. To defy and insult the Reformed House of Commons appears to have become the sole object of the unreformed House of Lords. The Lords, encouraged, I am sorry to think, by some of the Ministers, consider themselves, who are the legislators by accident, and responsible according to Sir Robert Peel to nobody on earth, as " co-equal and co-ordinate" (I quote a Ministerial expression) with the representatives of the na tion. Acting on this belief, they are pleased to declare that as the House of Commons will not proceed with a Ministry acceptable to them, so they will not put up with a Ministry which is supported by the House of Commons. In order to harass and thwart a Government agreeable to the House of Commons, and also, it would seem, to take vengeance on the Commons for rejecting a Tory Govern ment, the Lords have brought legislation in the British Em pire to a dead stand. Great Britain has no Constitution. Everythit, now depends on the caprice of a few Noble Lords: A of the Reform measures which the Commons have proposed this year would be a catalogue of affronts they have received from the Lords. I have, then, no re port to make to my constituents but of insults to the na tional representation and injuries to the nation. 1 have no good measure even to name without feelings of shame and indignation—l have no hope to hold out for the future-- except in the prospect of Peerage Reform. " As the Lords have put a stop to the uses of Parlia ment, all other questions arc absorbed in this one—How is the machine of Government to be again set in motion ? What philosophers and practical statesmen equally predic ted has come to pass—a real representation of the people has produced, not collision merely, but a permanent opposi tion between the two Houses. The late Session must have convinced most persons—be their political views what they may—that an unreformed House of Lords is incompatible with a reformed House of Commons—that they cannot sub sist together. Is the Reform Bill to be repealed, or are the Lords to be reformed ? This is now a practical question. Before the present crisis, the expediency of such a govern ing body as our House of Lords had been called in ques tion. It had been plausibly contended that to constitute men lawgivers by hereditary right was a grotesque absur dity ; that to render public functionaries irresponsible was a sure means to render them mischievous ; that from the free conference of 1689 to the free conference of 1836, the Lords have done little else than retard the progress of rational liberty and improvement. I will not enquire curiously into the correctness of such opinions, or of the inference derived from them, Why should I do ?—A plain practical proposition of more importance is now before us. Are the proceedings of Parliament to consist only of proposals from one branch of the legislature to be rejected by the other ?—lt is quite certain that, with whatever patience it may be endured for the moment, the country will not long submit to so pernicious, so absurd a state of things. The only remedy then—deprecate it as you may —is in further organic change. About the direction which such change will take, you and I are not disposed to doubt. As the rotten boroughs cannot be restored, the House of Lords must be purified. Peerage Reform is now the only question. Which side of that question the present Minis ters will take seems to be doubtful. The policy of Lord Grey's government, after passing the Reform Bill, was to con ciliate the Lords ; at all events to propose nothing which was likely to bring on a collision betweenithe two Houses. Lord Grey falling by this policy, Lord Melbourne advanced one step beyond it. He took office resolved to propose good measures—reforms agreeable to the nation, without regard to what might be the pleasure of the Lords ; but, also, without any plan for overcoming lordly opposition to his proposals of reform. The necessity had not then arisen for deciding on the question of Peerage Reform, and it was, therefore, possible that Lord Melbourne's Cabinet should contain persons who—let the Lords do what they may—object to all further organic change. But the case is now altered. Either Lord Melbourne must take another step, or the country will require another Minister. This is my deliberate conviction, and I express it with an earnest hope that Lord Melbourne will not be found wanting, on this great occasion, for the exercise of statesmanlike quali ties. If, unhappily, it should prove otherwise—if nothing be done by Ministers with a view to preventing another such absurd Session as that which has just closed—l can no longer range myself among the supporters of Govern ment. Nor am I singular in this intention. Many earnest Reformers in the House of Commons are weary of attending to support measures of Reform which end in nothing ; and I am but one of a powerful party when I say that the course which I may pursue next year de pends altogether on what may be the policy of Ministers. " We cannot permit the Tories, with a permanent mi nority in the House of Commons, to exercise the same in fluence over the Government of the country as when they possessed the rotten boroughs. We had another object in view when we carried the Reform Bill : to that great ob ject we are determined to adhere, although it might render necessary farther organic change. This declaration may be stigmatised as revolutionary and tending to convulsion : it is, however, conservative in the truest and best meaning of that term. The most revolutionary of all things is an ac knowledged national abuse suffered to maintain itself, and the strongest possible incentive to political convulsion is a great public grievance which might be removed, but which legislators are determined to uphold. " I have the honour to be, your very obedient servant, " WILLIAM HUTT. " To the Secretary of the Hull Reform Associotion. Hippolyte Gagneux, a custom-house officer at Vieux, in the Mn, having made proposals of marriage to the sister of the rector, and met with a refusal, resolved that she should never become the wife of another. He therefore went to the church on Good Friday, armed with a brace of pistols, one of which he discharged at the lady of his love, and the other at his own head. The young lady, however, received only a slight contusion, and the ball intended for himself missed his mark and entered the ceiling. He was arrested, and brought to trial at the last assizes for the department, when he was found guilty of a premeditated attempt to commit murder, and sentenced to hard labour at the hulks for 15 years. MR. MIDSHIPMAN EASY.--We scarcely remem ber to have read anything more droll and amusing than the opening chapters of Marryat's new work " Mr. Midshipman Easy." We speak of the opening chapters only, not having been able to obtain even a sight of more than the first volume, such is the avidity with which the work is sought for at the circulatinn. libraries. The author of " Peter Simple" may be considered as one of the best delineators of national man ners since the days of Fielding and Smollett ; it has been well observed that he has all their wit and humour, without their coa A rseness. deplorable accident recently occurred during the representation of Robert le Diable.

NORTHERN ClRCUlT—LrrsztrooL, Aua. 26 , COLE V. MARTIN. The plaintiff is a silk manufacturer at Manchester, and the defendant a calico printer. This was an action for an assault alieged to have been committed in the smoking room of the Albion Hotel, Manchester, on the 28th of March last. The plaintiff having pushed forward some halfpence which were lying on the table, the defendant made some observation, which the plaintiff understood to he, " I suppose you have been brought up at the Mecha nics' Institution, as you have got some light-fingered know ledge." The plaintiff accordingly rejoined, " That is the language of the police reports, and signifies thief and rascal, and if you intend to apply it to me you are a scoundrel." He immediately received a blow in the face from the de fendant. It was to recover compensation for the injury thus inflicted that the action was brought. Several attempts were made to induce the parties to ar range the matter out of Court, but the cause finally pro ceeded, and a verdict was returned for the plaintiff.—Da mages, One Farthing. The Court rose at ten o'clock. AUG. 27.—NEVITT V. MOSELY. This also was an action for an assault. The parties are coach proprietors, driving their own coaches on the road between Manchester and Macclesfield. A great rivalry has subsisted between them for some time past, and strong endeavours have been made on both sides to gain and keep the post of honour as first on the road. On the 15th of May last the defendant had left Manchester first, and was proceeding on his way to Macclesfield, with his coach hea vily laden, when the other party came up at a rapid rate. Some persons on the plaintiff's coach requested him not to race with his opponent, and, according to the evidence, he was proceeding at a steady pace on his own side of the road leaving abundance of room to pass, when the other coach came abreast of him. He touched his hat to his rival, when the defendant immediately, without any provocation, drew his leader across the plaintiff's team, caught the wheel with his splinter bar, and in that situation struck the plain tiff several times over the head and shoulders with his double thong. His blows, however, told with a much greater effect on a gentleman who was sitting beside the coachman on the box, whose cheek was laid open, and the rim of his hat cut by the thong. The defendant then drove on, say ing to the plaintiff, " you, are you satisfied now ?" On the arrival of both coaches at Macclesfield, the defen dant expressed the greatest regret at finding he had injured one of the passengers, saying that Nevitt, the plaintiff, was the party he intended to strike. He subsequently agreed to pay a sum of money to a charity to put an end to fur ther proceedings in that quarter. It did not appear that the plaintiff was materially injured. The Jury returned a verdict for 51. THEATRICAL DOINGS. Matters are at present very stagnant in the theatrical world but they are likely soon to be again in a state of activity. It is understood that, unless some unforseen circumstances should occur, Covent-Garden Theatre will open, under Mr. Osbal diston, on the 10th of September, with a company of remarka ble strength in the departments of tragedy and comedy, in cluding, as we have already more than once stated, such per formers as Charles Kemble, Macready, W. Farrell, Mrs. Glover, Miss Taylor, and various others. We are happy to have it confirmed in the course of the part week that the whole body means to pull together, and, if they do so honestly, fairly, and steadily, we do not doubt as to the result. Charles Kemble and Macready, if they ever had any, have laid aside trifling personal discordances, and will act in concert three times a week, if not oftener. It is advertised to be Charles Kemble's last season before he takes leave of the stage, upon which he has now been, boy and man, 42 years, having made his first appearance at Drury-lane in April, 1794. No time has yet been fixed for the commencement of the season, at Drury-lane, but the supposition is that it will open on or about the Ist of October, with a very attractive opera company, but weak in the department of the national drama. Mr. Bunn returns from Paris in the middle of the week, not having extended his journey beyond the French capital. It seems that he has deferred his expedition into Germany, if, indeed, he now intends to go there at all. Hence some doubt has recently been thrown upon the statement that it is his pur pose to have a German company this season at Drury-lane, or, after he comes into possession of it in March next, at the Eng lish Opera-house. We have seen it stated in letters from Mu nich that obstacles have been thrown in the way of some of the prfncipal singers at that Court visiting London this year, but we doubt if it be not some manoeuvre in order to raise the price of the commodity. lon continues so attractive at the Haymarket that, excepting the revival of Twelfth Night, Mr. Morris does not find it ne cessary to resort to any other novelty. A new comedy, by Jerrold, is talked of at Covent-Garden. That theatre will, it is said, open with The School for Scandal thus cast —Joseph Surface, Mr. Macready ; Charles, Mr. C. Kemble ; Sir Peter, Mr. Farren ; Lady Teazle, Miss Fau cit; Mrs. Candour, Mrs. Glover. The Bristol Theatre opens to-morrow, for a season of six weeks, under the manage ment of Mrs. Macready, widow of the tragedian's father. Mr. Macarthy is engaged. On the sth of September Mr. Mac ready appears there as lon. Madame Vestris and Mr. C. Mathews go to Leeds previous to the opening of the Olympic Theatre, which takes place on the 30th of September. A new piece is in preparation at the Adelphi, in which J o h n Reeve will appear. Th e a lt era ti ons at the Olympic have been much retarded by Mr. Beazley having delayed forwarding the designs. They have not yet cleared away all the rubbish be tween the roof and the ceiling; the latter will be rebuilt on a very novel principle. . . . PARIS THEATRICALS. Tamburini and Rubini, two of the leading powers in the only Quadruple Alliance of modern times with which all par ties arc satisfied, arrived in town from London some days since. Rubini has proceeded to Italy upon private business, but will return previous to the opening of the Italian Theatre. Mdlle. Taglioni, we regret to perceive, has not been able to perform during this week ; but there is no apprehension, we understand, of any return of the effects of the accident from which she has but lately recovered. A company composed wholly of very young children are about to appear at the Porte St. Martin, for a series of repre sentations. They have performed in some of the provinces with very great success ; if they really possess talent their representations must be curiously interesting. THE MARKETS.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE. A young man of respectable appearance, named John Tapp White, was brought before Alderman Pirie on Sa turday, by Daniel Forrester, the officer, charged with hav ing committed forgery upon the house of Zulueta and Co. of King William -street, Spanish merchants. Mr. Zulueta, sen., stated that the prisoner had been clerk to the house between two and three years, and quitted his service in the beginning of last May, having been discharged. The prisoner had been in the . habit of writing the accepting part of the bills received by the house for the last six months before he left the office, preparatory to witness placing his signature, and witness was acquainted with his writing, having frequently, from the nature of the duty, seen him write, and was of opinion that the writing above the signature of the bill of exchange for 1001. pro duced was his handwriting. The signature to the bill was not witness's writing, but it so resembled his writing that there could, in his opinion be scarcely a better imitation. The bill professed to be accepted on the 20th of August, and if confirmation were necessary to the denial of the ge nuineness of the signature, witness was at Ramsgate on that day, so that he could not accept the bill as payable " this day, the 20th of August, 1836," as was written across it. Alderman PIRIE—This is a serious charge against you, prisoner. Prisoner—l am perfectly aware that it is, Sir. Alderman Ping—Do you wish to say anything, or do you wish to have a legal adviser. Prisoner—l can get a legal adviser immediately. All I have to say is, that I know nothing at all about the transaction. I never heard a word about it in my life until Forrester apprehended me this morning, and I shall answer any question you may wish to put to me. Alderman PIRIE then remanded the prisoner until Wed nesday. GUILDHAL L. Thomas Truman and William Grayton, who had been before charged, the one with stealing, and the other with receiving, 2001. worth of straw plait from the warehouse of Messrs. Welsh and Co., Skinner-street, were re-exa mined, hut were discharged, the evidence not being suffi ciently strong against them to warrant the magistrate's sending them to take their trial. POLICE COMMITTEE, GUILDHALL. THE RIVAL HATTERS.—StoweII, the informer, sum moned Messrs. Smith and Co., hatters, opposite Farringdon street, for having a handbill posted up in their windows without the printer's name being attached to it. Mr. FLOWER, of the firm of Harmer, Flower, and Co., appearad on behalf of the defendants. • Stowell took out the Act of Parliament, with great im portance, from his pocket, and was about to point the atten tion of the Aldermen to that part of it which specifies the penalty incurred by publishing a hand bill without the prin ter's name, when Mr. Alderman VENABLES inquired whether he had a copy of the handbill in question with him ? Stowell--No, your worship, I have not. Mr. Alderman Venables—Then we must dismiss the case. We can take no notice of a matter of which we know nothing. Stowell—Here, your Worship, is a written copy of it (handing a piece of paper to the worthy Alderman.) Mr. Alderman VENABLES—Oh, I don't want to see it. Stowell—lt is a libel, your Worship ; still holding out the piece of paper to the Alderman, who, however, declined to look at it. The Committee—The case is dismissed. It appeared that the handbill in question was one of a series published by Messrs. Smith and Co., in the course of a violent paper war between them and Messrs. He rapath and Co., hat manufacturers, of 75, Holborn-hill, nearly opposite. A better illustration of the adage that " two of a trade can never agree" was never af forded. Messrs. Herapath and Co. had, it seems, their house painted red, and consequently, by way of distinc tion, called it " The Red House." Their opponents' place of business had been previously painted yellow, but for some reason or other, they lately painted it red, and also called it, like the other, " The Red House." Here, then, there were two Red House hat manufactories ; and Herapath and Co., not liking to be confounded with the opposition shop, baptized their establishment--" The True Red House," and that of their opponents—" The Yellow Red Sneak." The proprietors of " The Yellow Red Sneak," not relishing such an ugly cognomen, attacked the others in another hand-bill, under the alarming title of " An Exposure of Villainy," in which Messrs. Herapath and Co. wese called reptiles, rascals, and so forth. They retorted in " An Appeal to Englishmen," in which they asked whether there could be " a more despicable character than that of a dastardly coward ?" Messrs. Smith and Co. say their hats are the best in the world, and their opponents manufacture the worst—that, in short, they were only would-be hatters. The latter aver, on the other hand, that Messrs. Smith and Co.'s hats are mere trumpery—a perfect disgrace to the trade, and that theirs " stand unrivalled in the world." Messrs. Smith and Co. affirm that their op nents have been cheated the public ever since they were i n business ; the latter resent the imputation with p roper spirit, and, waxing poetical , exclaim - Fam'd hatters, of Holborn, who gained great renown, By their muc h-approved dealings all over th e town. This couplet, of cours e, is meant to apply to themselves. They conclude by asking what greater proof there could be of the superior quality of their goods, than for their oppo nents to pirate their colours, and thu s " suc k t h e honey of their exertions." The war still rages with unabated vigour, and there is little prospect of a cessation. BOW-STREET Robert Heath was summoned to show cause why he neglected to repay the sum of 10/., lent to him by the Friendly Loan Society ; and Henry Fry and Thomas Welchnzan, his sureties, for repayment of the money to the society, to show cause why they should not pay the same, in default of his doing so. The secretary to the society stated that the money was lent to Heath on the 10th of May, to be repaid by instal ments of 10s. a week, not one farthing of which had been paid. Heath and Welchman were both out of the way, and, he helievpd, insolvent ; and therefore his only remedy was against Fry, who could pay the money. A well-dressed man, about 60 years old, who said that he resided at Slough, near Salthill, was charged under the fol lowing circumstances : Clements, No. 102 E division, on Friday evening saw a sob of persons round the prisoner, in Crown-street, Blooms bury, and perceiving that he was in danger of receiving a severe chastisement, he conveyed him to the station-house. He had with him a girl of thirteen, whom, it was stated, he had been endeavouring to decoy to a brothel. The girl, whose name is Hunt, and whose parent,: live in Mitchell-street, St. Luke's, on Friday morning, was on her way to Sion College, London-wall, where she was in service, when the prisoner came up and asked her if she wanted a situation ? She said she would like to change her place. He then said that if she would stay with him all day and the next night he would take her with him in the morning to his sister, in the country, where she would find a comfortable home ; and he gave her Is. 6d. to purchase a pair of shoes. He led her about for several hours, and in the evening be wished her to en ter a house in St. Giles's, and he went to several, but the owner s would not admit them. At last several women came to them and abused the prisoner for his conduct to wards her, and the policeman came and took him away. Two females confirmed the girl's statement, and her fa ther stated he had never known her misbehave herself. The Magistrates said that, under the circumstances, they would send the case to t h e S ess i ons. The prisoner (who is said to be a very wealthy man) was then locked up. QUEEN-SQUARE. Mr. Horne, of the William the Fourth public-house, Commercial-road, Pimlico, was charged by the police with keeping open his house during divine service on Sunday last. The Magistrates fined him in the mitigated penalty of 40s. and costs. MARLBORO UGH-STREET John Smith was charged with having stolen three silk handkerchiefs, the property of Mr. Stear, linen-draper, Oxford-street. The prisoner was committed to Newgate for trial. AfARYLEB ONE. Tom Reedie, the well-known pugilist, attended at this office, for the purpose of preferring a charge of assau l t against Mr. Was. Kendrick, livery-stable keeper, 2974-, Oxford-street. Reedie, on being sworn, stated that on the previous day he was drinking with the defendant at the Grapes public house, South Molton-street. A few words ensued, when Mr. Kendrick struck him a tremendous blow in the bread basket, which made him pay his respects to his mother earth, and in doing_ so he fell on his elbow, and stripped off the bark to a painful extent. He then went away and ap plied for a warrant against the defendant. Mr. Kendrick, who exhibited several severe contusions about the face, on being called on for his defence, gave a very different version of the affair. He said that Reedie was the assailant, who, without provocation, planted his " one two" with the rapidity of lightning on his phiz, which caused it to assume that ill-proportioned and ugly appear ance which it now presented. In confirmation of this statement, Mr. Kendrick called a stableman, named Peck, who witnessed the affair, and who proved that the pugilist was certainly the aggressor. Mr. RA\VLISON (to Reedie)—What are you, Sir ? Reedie—l'm a plasterer, but am at present out of work. Mr. RAWLINSON—A plasterer in work, I should think ; for you seem to have plastered up Mr. Kendrick's eye in a very scientific manner. You are very smartly dressed. How is it you cut such a dashing appearance if you are, as you say, out of work ? Reedie—l receive assistance from my friends. Mr. RAwLiNsoN—From your friends, eh ? They must be very good-natured people. The warrant is dismissed, and you may, if you think proper, indict Mr. Kendrick at the sessions. WORSHIP-STREET. On Saturday Charles Brooks and Thomas Atkins, mem bers of a goldbeaters' society, were summoned to appear before Messrs. BROUGHTON and GROVE, charged by Mr. Wm. Bailey, No. 15, Gee-street, St. Luke's, goldbeater, with endeavouring by threats and intimidation to induce him to make an alteration in carrying on his business, and to limit the number of his apprentices and workmen. The inquiry excited a considerable deal of interest in the trade, and which includes about 40 masters and 150 men. The office was crowded with the employers and the employed. Mr. WOOLLER was engaged for the complainant, and • Mr. Hummitus was retained for the defendant. Mr. Baillie stated that on the 27th of June last ten of his men left his employ without assigning reasons for so doing. One man remained with him. In five days after Brooks called to explain something about the apprentices. He was in company with two other men. The subject was arranged satisfactorily. Brooks then called his atten tion to a man of the name of George Walls ; when com plainant said he would give him the price demanded by the strike, and place him in the same situation he was be fore. Walls had been charged before the magistrates with haviry , robbed the complainant ; but the case was not pressed, and he was that day discharged. One of the other men observed that his master would not employ Walls, and remarked that his (complainant's) shop was a refuge for the destitute. On the 18th of July Brooks again called, and told complainant that the committee were determined to defend men against the complainant, and he asked him if he intended to alter his mode of put ting 'Walls on, which was placing him under the appren- . - flees. Complainant said he would not alter ; when Brooks said that the committee would not allow that, though the question would be referred to it. Brooks then left, pro mising to call the next day, and let him know the decision of the committee. The next day Atkins, one of the com mittee, came with Brooks, and said that the committee had unanimously resolved not to let complainant employ men in that manner. Complainant replied that it would be his ruin. The defendant replied that they had plenty of money and plenty of effects, and that they meant to do the work this time in such a manner that it would not be required to be done a second time. It being past six o'clock, Mr. BROUGHTON adjourned the inquiry till Tuesday. Mr. Humphreys held himself responsible for the appear ance of the defendant. A master goldbeater said if 3,0001. bail were required for hem he would give it. TOWN-HALL. Dick Curtis, the well-known pet of the fancy, attended before Aldermen FAREBROTHER and WINCHESTER, to an swer to an information for suffering gambling in his house, the Star, Blackman-Itreet, Borough. The information had been laid by order of Alderman Farebrother, and the facts on which it was grounded were elicited during the investi gation of a case of the hocussing and robbery of a simple countryman in the above house. Curtis pleaded guilty. Alderman Farebrother repeated a former observation, that the case should not end there, and when the offenders were discovered, he would direct a public prosecution against them. Curtis endeavoured to impress the Magistrates with a belief that his house was generally well conducted. Alderman FAREBROTHER, instead of fining the defendant, allowed him to give a sum to the man who was robbed, only, however, settling the information, and not the felony.

LADIES' GALLERY.—The ladies formed at Wash ington the chief attraction of the Senate Chamber. Occupy ing a sort of passage or gallery on a level with, and circling round two-thirds of the floor, there they sit listening to their favourite speaker, wherever he may be engaged, either before the President's chair, boldly advancing the common interests, or behind some fair politician, timidly seeking to advance his own, and hence deal forth their award in well-pleased smiles, in due proportion to the eloquence of the speaker, public or private.—Power's " Impressions of America." A model of a first-rate ship of war has just been completed at Cherbourg for the Musee de la Marine. It is only six feet in length, and it is said, perfect in all parts , to the minutest rope, the exact proportions being preserved throughout. It is pierced for 120 guns, and has all the ports filled with small cannon. The name of the Neptune has been given to it, and it will be brought to Paris in the course of next week. The cost of this miniature man-of-war is between 9,000 and 10,000f.—Galignani's Messenger. STRANGE DEATH.—We have been informed by an Erris correspondent of a curious circumstance which led to th e death of an indiFidual ha that district. A man who had gon e out to fish with a line on the sea-shore was found dead som e time after. On examining him, a small fish was discover° d stuck in his throat, and which it was evident had caused death. It was thought that he had placed the fish in his mouth, either for amusement or from some other reaso n , b ut t h at he had in cautiously allowed it to get in too far ; an d t h at owing to its having extended his fins, he was u na bl e to relieve himself by taking it out until he was choked. Au inquest was held on the body, and the Jury returned a verdict in conformity with this opinion.—Mayo Constitution. Last week a large and beautiful salmon was taken in the Forth. It was heavier by 101bs. than any previously caught at the same fishery, weighing 451b5., and measuring in length three feet ten inches and a half. It was a fish of beau tiful proportions, of excellent quality, and was sold at lod. a pound.—Ayr Observer.
